Antenatal classes

Wondering if you're experiencing early signs of pregnancy? From nausea and discharge to that metallic taste, chat about symptoms here. Please note, as this is a peer-to-peer support board, Netmums hasn't checked the qualifications of anyone posting here. Read more on early pregnancy signs here.

I've been wondering this myself. My partner and I were quite surprised to find out how much they cost, and it's not something we can realistically justify if I'm honest!

Nope you don't I didn't go to any midwife kept suggesting it but I've worked with children for 10 years and last thing I wanted was to work till 6 at night then go to antenatal class till 9 when I was tired from pregnancy so in answer to your question no it's not compulsory but midwife will probably advise you too but don't feel pressured into it your motherly instinct will kick in and during Labour I'm pretty sure the last thing on your mind will be &#034;how did that lady tell me how to breath again?&#034;
